|
Johnny's always running around |
|
Trying to find certainty |
|
He needs all the world to confirm |
|
That he ain't lonely |
|
Mary counts the walls |
|
Knows he tires easily |
|
Johnny thinks the world would be right |
|
If it could buy truth from him |
|
Mary says, "He changes his mind |
|
More than a woman" |
|
But she made her bed |
|
Even when the chance was slim |
|
Johnny says, "He's willing to learn" |
|
When he decides he's a fool |
|
Johnny says, "He'll live anywhere" |
|
When he earns to time |
|
Mary combs her hair |
|
Says she should be used to it |
|
Mary always hedges her bets |
|
She never knows what to think |
|
She says, "That he still acts |
|
Like he is being discovered" |
|
Scared that he'll be caught |
|
Without a second thought running around |
|
Johnny feels, he's wasting his breath |
|
Trying to talk sense to her |
|
Mary says, "He's lacking a real |
|
Sense of proportion" |
|
So she combs her hair |
|
Knows he tires easily |
|
Johnny's always running around |
|
Trying to find certainty |
|
He needs all the world to confirm |
|
That he ain't lonely |
|
Mary counts the walls |
|
Says, "She should be used to it" |
|
Johnny's always running around |
|
Running around |
